Our spouses and significant others think we're crazy. Our clients sometimes have no idea what we're rambling about. But for all of us in the lighting industry, the language of lighting is a constantly changing entity that influences our professional sensibilities in dramatic fashion. The rate of change in the lighting industry with the advance of LED's and computer controls dominates revenue considerations and a company's ability to integrate and specialize in these defines it's dynamism in a climate where technological dynamism is king.

Now step back from all the efficacies, all the dark-sky, all the hundred-billion hour lifetime hype, and stand outside, in an un-electrified place at any time of day. The colors, hues, ambiance, and energy of natural light has no equal. It is the natural resource which we try to simulate and emulate. It is the inspiration behind our vision for our clients. And it informs the ideal to which we strive. For exterior lighting professionals passionate about what they do, that is where the essence of our inspiration can be found.

As such, we present the work of Qi Wei Fong, Shimmer to Life as Time Passes. This piece expresses through art, the vision of the inspired lighting professional, and the lens through which we view our environment.
